A South African Reverend on Sunday collapsed and died during a sermon at the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Kuruman, Northern Cape.
Reverend Bassie Jackals was busy giving a powerful sermon when he suddenly sat down on a chair. Members of the reverend’s church clapped hands, thinking it was all part of the act.
However, a video which has been doing the rounds online shows the pastor falling to the ground. A couple of ladies rushed to his side to help Reverend Jackals.
